#FallJamboreeDoodles Corn maze
This was HARD and doesn't look like a maze 😕 Oh well, I tried.

A childhood favorite. My friend and I tried to write our own book (just like the two friends in Brink's book) about two friends who visit a dude ranch because, of course, we knew everything about growing up on a dude ranch and meeting some cowboys! 🤠🤠
pickMary Giaccio is spending more and more time at the Wakefield house, and Jessica is not happy about it. She notices Mary following Mrs. W around a lot and always inviting herself over. Mary is a foster child and it turns out Mrs. W looks uncannily like her real mother, whom she is sure is still out there looking for her. Sure enough, Mary‘s mom shows up at the end and we hear the whole sordid tale of how Mary was kidnapped at age 4 by her ⬇️
pickMary Giaccio, a 7th grader and Unicorn Club member with Jessica, plays a starring role here in a downright soap opera plot! A foster child and relatively new to #SweetValley, she fits in well and even gets along well with Liz who finds most Unicorns snobby. Lately, whenever Mary is at the Wakefield house, she spends most of her time with Alice! Jess feels strange about sharing her mother. Liz learns the truth of Mary‘s background—& saves the day!

It was absolutely lovely to read this amazing book in the city where the action occurs - Rio de Janeiro. There is so much sensibility, pain and emotion in this book, all conveyed to the reader in such a subtle & enjoyable way. Such a complex and good book, in spite of being easy to read! I just couldn‘t put it down and finished it by the pool, while enjoying a Caipirinha, under the soft tropical rain.
I made a brief visit to Toronto yesterday and had to stop by my favourite bookstore, BMV on Bloor, where I picked up a couple of vintage mysteries.
pickI have @TheAromaofBooks to thank for this one—I saw your recent post and it sounded delightful. So I tracked the book down online, and it was indeed delightful. 😊 I love these older, almost-classic children‘s books as a sweet escape. All the childhood best-friend hijinks rang true for me, with the book-writing and the dolls and the imagination!
